5BC-F is listed in the LED Indication - Discrete range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Bivar Inc.. Its product description is LED GRN/RED DIFFUSED T-1 3/4 T/H. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The Bivar Inc. 5BC-F is a through-hole bi-color LED indicator featuring a 5mm T-1 3/4 radial package with three leads. It utilizes a diffused lens to emit red and green light, with peak wavelengths of 625nm and 568nm respectively. The component operates at a typical forward voltage of 2V for red and 2.1V for green, with a test current of 20mA. It offers a viewing angle of 140 degrees and luminous intensities of 8mcd for green and 35mcd for red.
Verify the specific suffix requirements for your assembly, as variants like 5BC-3-F exist. Confirm RoHS compliance status against current regulatory standards before finalizing procurement. Check manufacturer lifecycle notifications, as this component may be marked as Not Recommended for New Designs (NRND). Ensure lead length and spacing match your PCB footprint specifications.
Select this component when dual-state indication is required in a compact 5mm form factor. The high viewing angle makes it suitable for applications where visibility from wide angles is critical. Compare luminous intensity requirements against the 8mcd green and 35mcd red outputs. Consider the radial lead configuration for ease of manual or automated insertion into panel-mounted assemblies.
This part belongs to Bivar's standard through-hole LED indicator series. It shares the 5mm T-1 3/4 physical dimensions with other discrete LEDs in the lineup but distinguishes itself through its bi-color capability. The product line focuses on reliable visual signaling for industrial and commercial equipment panels.
Public confirmed substitute part numbers include 5BC-3.
